Fri, 07 May 2021 07:08 UTC Following its coldest APRIL since 1922, England is now on for its coldest MAY since record-keeping began some 362 years ago -since the Maunder Minimum (1645-1715)! Back in 1659, England was still processing the death of Richard Cromwell, who, after the execution of King Charles I, had ruled the Commonwealth of England for 5 years. The year 1659 is also the start date of the Central England Temperature (CET) dataset, which has proved an invaluable resource for meteorologists and climate scientists alike. Astonishingly, what the dataset reveals in 2021, in this time ...

1981-2010 baseline, with its average minimum dropping a whopping 2.5C below the mean: Austria April Mean [zamg.ac.at].SWITZERLAND The national average in April across Switzerland sank to 2.9C — a full 1C below the 1981-2010 norm. The last time the country suffered an April this cold was back 2001. And across the Upper Engadin, the month actually finished up almost 2C below the baseline — you have to go back to the 1980s here to find a colder April, reports meteoschweiz.ch who calls conditions in April: "The Great Cold." THE UK Not to be left out, the UK Met Office has confirmed that the ...

Mon, 05 Apr 2021 06:35 UTC The Version 6.0 global average lower tropospheric temperature (LT) anomaly for March, 2021 has come in at -0.01 deg. C below the 30-year baseline, down from the February, 2021 value of +0.20 deg. C, and down substantially (approx. 0.6C deg. C) from where we were around a year ago. A continuation of this downward plunge is highly probable over the coming months (with the odd bump along the way -climate is cyclic after all) as low solar activity and La Nina conditions persist. According to the 15x NASA/NOAA AMSU satellites that measure every square inch of the lower t...

A swarm of drones might soon take the place of humans dangling on a rope to do routine close-up safety inspections of offshore wind turbines. When a...

12 March 2021, 10:42 am EST By Researchers involved in the High-Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) observatory were in for a surprise after the discovery that the cosmic rays bouncing towards Earth do not originate from a supernova. The observatory, based in Puebla, Mexico, uses huge metallic tanks containing water in the process.   The Contribution of the HAWC Observatory The common notion in science is that cosmic rays came from supernovas. They are the fast-moving, high-energy protons and atomic nuclei that travel to Earth. The solar system housed them through millions of galaxies in outer...
